Kris Jenner ignores Kanye West's nasty 'Kris Jong-un' jibe as she returns to social media, shares post on beignets
Momager Kris Jenner has broken her silence on social media amid all the drama and unpleasantries surrounding her son-in-law Kanye West. The 'Stronger' hitmaker, who is currently running for US Presidency, broke down in tears and told everyone that his wife Kim Kardashian had almost aborted their first child, North West, during his first campaign event on July 19.
The very personal revelation during the rally "shocked the family beyond words." He had also called Kim's momager Kris Jenner a "White supremacist" and dubbed her as "Kris Jong-un" on Twitter in posts, which have since been deleted.
It seems like the matriarch has not paid any heed to Kanye and his comments but has chosen to rise above it. She took to Instagram on Wednesday, July 22, and shared a short video clip on her Instagram stories. She showed off a delivery she had received of beignets, a delicacy from Louisiana. The pastries had been sent to her from Beignet Box, a Los Angeles-based bakery.
In the video clip, some light background music could be heard as Kris showed her fans and followers what she had been snacking on. Kris has been keeping a low profile this past week ever since her son-in-law has been making headlines for his bizarre Presidential speech.
On Wednesday morning, Kim took to her Instagram handle to say that she is "powerless" but added that her husband is "brilliant but complicated." "Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor," Kim wrote.
"I understand Kanye is subject to criticism because he is a public figure and his actions at times can cause strong opinions and emotions. He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressures of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bipolar disorder," she added.
"Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions," she continued.
We had earlier shared that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have reportedly been discussing getting divorced. According to sources, the two have been discussing a split in the aftermath of Kanye's latest and past Twitter rants. On Tuesday night, July 21, Kanye claimed on Twitter that he had been considering getting a divorce from Kim since November 2018.
Sources told People that the "divorce had been in the process for several weeks." A source commented, "There has been enough communication, both in the past few days and in the weeks prior, to establish that both sides feel the marriage is over." One source added that the discussions of divorce have been "a long time coming".
Social media users commented on Kim's post and supported her. One such user shared, "Hope he gets well soon. And will get the help he will get." Another wrote, "I feel so bad watching this play out.. I am so sad for him. I hope this downward spiral comes to a halt soon."
